Walk-n-Talk /Tasty Thursday

This Tasty Thursday, we're taking a lil Walk-N-Talk. Not to be confused with a 'knock-n-talk'. Wives of law enforcement officers will understand. Let's just say my version will not lead to any arrests. But you may be dazzled with my cool food-related finds from the 2016 Missouri State Fair. 

Here's a line of table runners quilted and ready for display above the cases of other handmade items. Wouldn't you love to have one of these beauties on your table this coming holiday season??

First glance you can pretty much tell this has some detail you shouldn't ignore.

 I love, love, love the play kitchen sink. It really deserved more prominence in the display.

The cookbooks could have some long lost ideas in them. Never toss out Grandma's books. 

I can't tell you what the cards are saying on this shelf, but that orange is back in style, again.

And every year there are vegetables on display with unique color, shape and weights. 

I don't have any 400 pounders, but I Do have a lil patch of goodness this year....

Watermelons: 7

Pumpkins: a crop of 9 at press time :)

Law and Order/ Tasty Thursday

Wouldn't you know it?! I get to have two parties this week at work!

But just remember, I get to play at work ;)

Here's a peek at our party yesterday.

To start, we had a Cops & Robbers party for Sawyer.

He is four Today, but we celebrated yesterday so Happy Birthday Sawyer!!

We made some homemade journals with wallpaper samples and drew bad guys inside.

Here is Sawyer's REally Bad Guy!

Our beanbags were labeled with Really Bad Guys and were tossed into jail! They were interested in what the names meant, like 'what's vandal and bandit mean?"

Great vocabulary opportunity.

Another homemade game was Pin the Badge on the cop.

Using more of the wallpaper samples, we connected the less interesting pieces into a large poster-sized one to draw our own officer. The badges were drawn on blank stickers donated by a friend who works at a local photo plant. Lucky us!!

This is our connection to Tasty Thursday.

Everyone knows how much cops love 

donuts!!

We had them instead of cupcakes.

With sprinkles of course!
